Bio
Christine Hissong is a Collaboratively trained family law attorney, certified mediator, and transformative coach practicing in Northern Virginia. A former litigator, Christine has remodeled her practice to serve her clients in out-of-court resolution processes, including mediation, Collaborative divorce, negotiation, and coaching. Over the years, litigation has become more costly, more contentious, and more devastating for families, and access to the Courts has become increasingly difficult. Christine thinks it is imperative that her clients have the opportunity to engage in more cost-effective, respectful, and productive ways to address their Cohabitation Agreements, Pre-nuptial Agreements, Marital Agreements, and Marital Settlement Agreements.
Further, keeping in line with self-determination and empowerment during transformation, Christine is a transformative coach, partnering with her coaching clients as they discover their passions and find the answers they need to transform their lives in ways to increase peace and joy. Christine works with clients who are ready to discover their true goals and to align their lives with those goals, through personal, professional, and relationship transformation.
